Four Card Poker
Four Card Poker™ is a game that rewards skill, patience and nerve. It is similar to Three Card Poker® but with one major difference. In Three Card Poker, the Play wager must equal the Ante; in Four Card, players may bet up to three times their Ante when staying in the game. Featuring head-to-head play against the dealer and an optional bonus bet, Four Card Poker is a fast-paced, exciting game that is quickly becoming another high demand specialty game.
Rules of Play
- Players make an Ante bet to compete against the dealer, and make the Aces Up bet to play against the pay table. Players receive five cards to make four-card poker hands. Four-card straights are straights, four-card flushes are flushes. The dealer gets six cards to make his four-card hand, and one of his cards is dealt face-up.
- After seeing their hands, players may fold or stay in the game by making a Play wager. Players may bet 1x to 3x their Ante when staying in the game. The dealer reveals his hand and compares it with each player’s. If a player beats (or ties) the dealer, his Play and Ante bets win even money. If the dealer beats a player, players Play and Ante bets lose. Note: the dealer always qualifies.
- Premium hands–three-of-a-kind and higher–receive automatic payouts. These are paid on the Ante wager. Automatic bonuses always win, even if the player loses to the dealer.
- The Aces Up side bet wins when a player has a pair of Aces or better.
